Those were the glory days, I always collected so regularly, on the off chance that Bitcoin would one day be worth a lot, and here we are at over 100k a coin.
Many who have been in the crypto industry for a long time started with faucets. That's why freebitcoin had such a large audience. At that time, users really had the opportunity to collect quite a lot of sats (0.2, 0.5, or even 1 BTC if there were referrals) but the problem is that only a few continued to keep sats from faucets until now.
Yeah I could remember I once received a few sats back then from a survey task I participated although I can't recall which platform exactly through which I got it as its been a long time now, but if we're to compare those times with now between faucets era and the mini telegram airdrop tapping projects I dont think there's a big gap of difference between the two as they're both about rewarding participation. And just as some persons who received those faucet rewards (sats) couldn't hold up to now but sold ASAP, same way some of the persons receiving a few airdrops rewards are selling theirs without having a positive look to the future potential of those tokens they get. It's possible that tomorrow a lot of people will likewise talk about some of this airdrops too and which they hold.
